This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

10 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet · found on this site
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Asteroid operates in the branding and design sector, targeting businesses that require comprehensive brand development and multidimensional design solutions. Its competitive advantage lies in its innovative approach and emphasis on brand uniqueness and visibility. The business model is service-oriented, focusing on creative and strategic branding services. The company maintains an active social media presence on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, which supports marketing and client engagement. The website's content and design quality indicate a small but professional agency with a clear market niche. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified. The absence of explicit contact details and privacy policy pages suggests areas for improvement in transparency and compliance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms in place. Accessibility features are robust, enhancing user experience for people with disabilities. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No security policy or incident response information is published, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. The use of third-party plugins like Elementor and Yoast SEO requires ongoing vulnerability management. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected in the content. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a small agency but could be enhanced with additional policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy page to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen security posture.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Include clear company contact information on the website to improve business credibility and user support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for search optimization. It leverages Google Fonts and jQuery libraries, and integrates the Accessibly App for accessibility enhancements. Cookie consent is managed by the Complianz GDPR plugin, indicating attention to privacy regulations. The site shows good mobile optimization and accessibility compliance, with structured data (JSON-LD) implemented for SEO benefits. Performance is moderate, with lazy loading of images and use of caching implied. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical stack is appropriate for a small creative agency, though improvements in security headers and explicit privacy documentation are recommended to reduce technical debt and compliance risks.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
